Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Good bright straw-yellow. Ripe nectarine lifted by nutmeg and lavender on the nose. Large-scaled, smooth and sweet; not a particularly refined style of Corton-Charlemagne bu...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Pale bright yellow. Very pure nose offers white peach, hazelnut and herbs, along with some riper soft citrus notes. Sweet, ripe and easygoing; suppler than the Folatieres bu...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2009 Chassagne-Montrachet La Truffiere shows lovely tension and pure, lively minerality. This is one of the brighter more focused of the 2009s here, but there is plenty of...
